Izola in the Maia Song Contest

Izola has participated in the Maia Song Contest since the first edition.

Maia Song Contest 1-5
Izola was the first country to submit an entry to the Maia Song Contest, after announcing its list of entries for one of the oldest and most famous national selection shows, Izola Harmoni. Florrie won the tournament ladder with her song "Real Love", beating out 15 other artists including later veterans of the Maia Song Contest such as Allie X from edition 7, BANKS from edition 10, and St. Vincent from edition 13. Eventually, Florrie finished the contest in 10th with a respectable 67 points.

The second edition also featured a tournament style national selection, which was won by Anne-Marie and her song "Boy". The song was often slandered by the public for being too mainstream, grunge, and it was even rumoured that the song would fail to qualify for the final. Despite this, "Boy" was the final song to be announced to qualify from the first semi-final in Oxenryd. It later went on to achieve another respectable placement of 9th with 99 points.

Edition 3 was a pivotal edition for Izola. The country had altered its national selection to feature only 10 songs with typical Maian voting implemented. The selection was won by That Poppy and her song "Money". This song was highly appreciated among Maia aficionados scoring 2nd place in semi-final 1. It later scored 3rd place with 150 points, beaten only by Björnska and the edition's winner, Temekylopia. Poppy stated in an interview that she was honoured to be a part of the Maia Song Contest community and will continue to produce music for Maia to enjoy. Poppy is one of a few Izol entrants who have since returned to the contest, along with Anne-Marie, both of which performed in the fifth edition of the contest representing Respublika and Fronezenchya respectively. Poppy, once again, scored an admirable 3rd place with 148 points, this time with her song "Lowlife", while Anne-Marie failed to qualify from semi-final 2.

Izola continued with its new format of entry selection, increasing the number of participants from 10 to 12. Eventually it was decided that Nina Nesbitt would represent Izola with her song "Chewing Gum", which automatically qualified from the semi-finals due to Poppy's top 5 placement. However, Nina Nesbitt was devastated to find that she had scored the worst placement for Izola at 11th with 114 points. Tension arose between Nesbitt and Mahan Moin who represented a debutant country, Loafousia, with statements released by the press saying that neither entrant liked the other's song.

The fifth edition saw two entrants for Izola, Dagny and Borns, who represented the country with the song "Fool's Gold". This song eventually qualified and placed 9th place. Although there is not much significant news about the song, it is still highly rated among Maia fans today.

Maia Song Contest 6-10
Unfortunately, edition 6 remains Izola's worst edition. Once again, the edition saw two artists instead of one, Zella Day and Baby E, which performed with their song "Mustang Kids". The reveal for the song was very dramatic due to Izola's past success and the edition's abolition of the renowned Izola Harmoni national selection programme. Izola released a teaser video, however the song failed to qualify from the second semi-final in Klapaucius at just 12th place.

Izola participated in the 7th edition of the Maia Song Contest after the winner of Izola Harmoni: Old and New was announced to be Allie X with her song "All The Rage". This national selection featured 10 songs, 5 of the songs being reused from the previous 5 editions of Izola Harmoni, and 5 new songs from the same artists which scored 2nd in the previous editions of the national selection. She scored 2nd place with 132 points and 3rd in semi. Controversy sparked when Izol artist Chlöe Howl won the contest for Loafousia as well as Izol artist Marina Diamandis scoring 5th place for Glorimala. Many Izol people say that "Izola won the contest!".

The eighth edition re-introduced the standard Izola Harmoni format with no returning entries and 12 artists, with big names such as Azealia Banks and FKA Twigs. The selection was won by LÉON with her song "Tired of Talking", which automatically qualified and scored a measly 22nd in the final with just 70 points. This has since been Izola's 2nd worst placement, and its worst placement in any grand final. Despite this, the song has a few fans among the community.

Finally, Izola had won the contest with Coreelian artist, ionnalee and her song "Samaritan". The song had won its semi-final and the grand final with a very high 177 points, still among some of Maia's highest scoring winning entries. This meant that Izola would be hosting the 10th edition, which was eventually announced to be in Mopoit. ionnalee released a statement to the press stating her elation with winning the contest and her interest in helping to continue hosting this contest and promoting the congregation of international music to the contest.

Izola was represented by BANKS, a veteran in the Izol celebrity scene, having performed in Izola Harmoni multiple times. She represented the country with her song "Trainwreck" which was controversially drawn to perform 24th out of the 25 entrants. This slot is considered very favourable to whoever performs within it. However, this edition was highly controversial due to the 3-way tie that included BANKS. This tie was for 5th place, an automatic qualification spot for the next edition. It was eventually won by Kashykia and Bouchra with her song "Blanc ou Noir", with 6th place going to Qualton and Dumblonde with "Dreamsicle", and 7th going to Izola. At first, IZT denounced the contest for rigging BANKS out of an automatic qualification spot, but it was revealed that this was not the case. Many Maia fans were under the impression that BANKS was jealous of Bouchra and Dumblonde, but she tweeted out that she was "glad to participate" and she was "pleased with her result either way". She later was seen in a coffee shop with Bouchra, and was found buying a Dumblonde vinyl in a Qualtonese store.
